Hi @Mani_Volanti,

Welcome to the HP Support Community!

Thanks for reaching out!

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.

I understand you’re having trouble typing the “<” (less than) symbol on your HP Victus laptop. This usually depends on the keyboard layout and region settings. Here’s how to type it:

1. Standard US / English Keyboard

Press Shift + comma (,) → this should type “<”.

Press Shift + period (.) → this types “>”.

2. If using a different keyboard layout

Go to Settings > Time & Language > Language & Region > Keyboard.

Check which layout is active (e.g., US QWERTY, UK QWERTY, or another language).

Some layouts (like certain European ones) may require AltGr + key to type symbols.

3. Use Alt Code (Numeric Keypad)

Hold Alt and type 60 on the numeric keypad → outputs “<”.

Note: This works only if your laptop has a numeric keypad or Num Lock is enabled on the number keys.

4. Use On-Screen Keyboard

Press Windows + Ctrl + O to open the on-screen keyboard.

Click Shift, then click the “<” key on the virtual keyboard.

I hope this helps.
